Key Moments:
- Diversity and inclusion efforts can improve business performance by up to 35% by attracting and retaining diverse talent and improving productivity.
- Representation matters as it inspires underrepresented groups by showing them that success is possible for them too.
- Organizations need to support and develop trailblazers from underrepresented groups to inspire more people.
- Cluster hiring can become siloed and people may feel they were only hired for their identity, so organizations need to integrate and develop individuals holistically.
- Diversity and inclusion are good business practices that help organizations hire the best talent and build products for diverse customers.
- Returns on diversity and inclusion investments can take 1-2 years to show in increased revenue.
- Seniors and people with disabilities are underutilized talent pools that organizations are not tapping into.
- Inclusion happens when people's expertise is valued regardless of their role or background. This can improve projects and meet client needs better.
- Having a strong support network is important for entrepreneurs to persevere through challenges.
- Inclusive cultures require unlearning biases and rewiring ways of thinking to see what else is possible.
